COMIC SCORE: MIRACLEMAN TRADES

I was in a local comic shop yesterday and stumbled upon Alan Moore's MIRACLEMAN: BOOK 2 and BOOK 3! The store had discovered it in their back storage supply and had put them out on the shelf an hour before. The books are relatively rare and are usually priced pretty steep, but being the cool store they are, they sold em to me for just $25 each! I really love these on my shelf, but can't help but contemplate, "Hmm, should I sell em?" For now, I KEEP!

*Anyone have Book 1, 4 & 5 they want to give me?

Great stuff inside, but those are two of the bugliest cover designs I've ever seen. No wonder Eclipse went tits up.

Dang! Lucky dawg. Years ago, when I decided to track down the whole Miracleman run (this was was pre-internet for me, which meant that I spent a lot of traveling to different shops to get them all) the only trade I could find was Book Two. It cost me $86. I got all of the rest of the run in singles (#15 cost me $114 by itself).

I'll give you $50 for book three

Thanks for the offer Quitney, but I'm going to hold on to them for my own personal library. However, I'll keep a look out for another copy ;)
